      3 # Tests for defined and undefined variables in .if conditions, in lint mode.
      4 #
      5 # As of 2020-09-14, lint mode contains experimental code for printing
      6 # accurate error messages in case of undefined variables, instead of the
      7 # wrong "Malformed condition".

     58 # The crucial point is that at the point where the variable appears in the
     59 # condition, there is no way to influence the definedness of the nested

     61 # nested variables into empty strings, as an equivalent to the :U modifier.
